Must have been strange for him living in some Dorian Grey world. Watching his friends grow up into adulthood. Watching them move away to jobs or uni, or travel. Friends who find love, settle down, a world he could never have. Almost trapped in time, a broken clock. All for the glory of scoring goals, it all seems so childlike now, but then for Billy it is and always will be childike....

"Why Gran? (see I've done my research), Why can't I ever change?"

Billy looks up at the Sun, clutching his football boots, he raises a child's hand to shield his eyes and is again suprised at how it has changed. Less warm now? Its hard to tell as five hundred thousand years have passed since Billy asked his Grandmother those two simple questions. 

"Gran?" Billy struggles to articulate a word who's meaning have been ravaged by the winds of time. Her very remains long vanished from an earth that has no memory of the cities and peoples of mankind....

 

 

Next weeks edition: Billy Trades his boots in for some Everton-coloured hair pieces that will make him become more and more attractive online through online shopping...
